HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

Grew this rose in Zone 9b, Jacksonville, FL for 3 seasons. Removed from the garden in the 4th for non-performance. This rose (despite much pampering) never bloomed or grew out of it's band (small rooting pot). I knew it was a gamble to grow a Gallica rose in such a mild climate and the gamble didn't pay off. I love, love, love this rose but unfortunately it doesn't love my garden.

My CdM is blooming and looks stunning!
I planted it in early June of 2012, close to house on south side next to Mme. Hardy. I bought it from Springvale Nursery
Charles de Mills looks nicer in alkaline soil - I'll remember this thornless one.
